The speaker from PreMedical Ms.Schnarre, I was not interested in any of the things that this major had to offer. I have never been interested in PreMedical. Will probably not want to pursue any kind of job in this of work. Even though the opportunities seem interesting, the money was with my interest. I would not want to take a different direction that I am already headed.…
My First Shot The air was empty but the pond was full. We sneak through the trees to get to the pond. We get there to realize that the gamble we took didn't pay off. Since we got there about thirty minutes before shoot time we waited. That was the slowest 30 minutes ever.…

As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace. This trip could not have been timed more perfectly. The summer of 2007 marked the end of fourth grade, my first year at Saint Mary Academy Bay View.…
Hope and Success Through all of the struggle with my son’s condition , when I look back on all the great progress he has made, it strikes me how much he has achieved, much more than I ever imagined at the beginning of my journey with ASD. I am so proud of my son for his efforts and accomplishments, and although he still has his challenges, he is an extremely intelligent, smart, caring and loving boy. He has great talents that only now other people start to see as well, such as an amazing talents in art, engineer, math, and other creative abilities. I keep focusing on my son’s strengths, helping and encourage him to develop these strengths.…
Iclesias Phanord Breaking the Norm I’m surrounded by bouncing basketball and expectations. I had not yet found my vocation. However, many people around me had; whether it was basketball, cheerleading, or track - they had found a purpose that drove them. I did not have anything that I was truly passionate about but when I began playing volleyball, I discovered it and I fell in love with the intensity that came when I touched a volleyball.…
In conclusion, I had a very positive experience with this class. I believe that I learned a lot from this course such as the writing strategies that I was not aware of previously. I feel that I can now express my ideas far more effectively. There is always room for improvement.…
Lately the days feel like they are combining together. I cannot keep up with them. Next week is the week of finals, and I am so ready for them. I know I can do it. In all of my classes I am passing.…
Behind my bright blue eyes is the soul of a girl with many passions. I grew up as a tomboy, riding fourwheelers and playing sports. Throughout the years I have gone from wanting to be a ballerina, to a veterinarian, a writer, a marine biologist, and now I am striving to become a professional golfer. At the youthful age of ten my life was changed.…
The door slammed and the wood of the log cabin vibrated and cracked. We knew telling our oldest daughter Hope about the move would be hard. She was twelve and had just started to make friends with some of the girls she went to school with. My husband Gary and I had an easy life raising Hope.…
Exhaling a soft sigh she placed her right hand against her back, messaging it gently as her head tilted from side to side. She had been on her feet for a little over 4 hours already performing a heart transplant surgery, and would soon be heading into her next surgery. Inhaling a deep breath she dropped her hand from her back and lifted it to stretch across her chest, she dropped that arm and did the same with the next one. “I don’t know why I thought I’d be able to do this… you know with out Bailey being here…” She muttered, head turning to look at Meredith.…
“Go! Just do it already!” My heart began to beat faster and faster as I began to think of the outcomes in my head, there was no turning back now. I was sitting on a tree stomp barely above the powder that had fallen previously the night before it was just high enough to keep me from touching the snow, I looked down at my binding and pretended to fix it but really I was just finding a way to stall my eager friends. I sat there staring down at my biggest goal but also my worst fear.…
A Life-Changing Epiphany “Speak for the silent, stand for the broken.” These eight words modified how I distinguished myself personally and how I regarded other individuals. Secluded from the world, I lived as a ghost in my own life. Hearing Mike Smith’s speech at a leadership conference revised my understanding of life. Life isn’t about technology or social standing, life is about understanding that each person matters and deserves to be noticed.…
A Turning Point Many events occur during a person’s lifetime, some heal the soul and others leave an unpleasant scar. Either way, by time, all of those events come together to give that person a memorable experience that will not be forgotten. I have faced many terrific circumstances, some of which gave me good memories and some gave me terrible experiences. However, the most remarkable event in my life was an exceptional one, one that made me realize that no matter how bad things get, there will always be something better.…
Finding the Joy There is a deeper understanding when it comes to writing; writing brings so much joy to others, whether some realize it at the time or not. Yet, I spent the first part of my life oblivious to this concept. As a young writer, I wrote because I had to; it was mandatory for the English curriculum. Writing came easily to me, never having to give it much thought.…
